TouchMagix Pvt. Ltd

Product Design Intern

Apart from researching, exploring and ideating for innovative games, I had the opportunity to create a model and working prototype for one of my concepts that could be a potential launch in the future. The majority of my tenure comprised defining, designing and developing the gameplay, theme, narrative and cabinet design for another upcoming game.
This internship gave me an opportunity to dive deeper into understanding user behaviour and human psychology.
